Agrochemicals Desk Reference is a comprehensive volume that features environmental and physical/chemical data on 200 compounds, including pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides. Data presented includes the soil/sediment partition coefficient (Koc) for predicting the compound transport rate in groundwater, the octanol/water partition coefficient (Kow) for determining the compound’s hydrophobicity and estimating bioaccumulation potential in aquatic biota, and Henry’s Law Constants for determining the relative volatility of a substance. The book also provides data on hydrolysis and ph

Methods for determining exposure of pesticides to agricultural workers have been developing for over thirty years. You may ask: what more do we need to know? Worker Exposure to Agrochemicals provides the answer. It contains a compilation of research papers that examine this issue from every angle.Even with all the information available, there still remains an intense debate over what method - dermal deposition or biological monitoring - provides better results when measuring worker exposure. Researchers almost never realize the same results in concurrent experiments using both methods. The que

This book presents discussions of the most important aspects in the development of agrochemicals. The book covers such broad areas as structure activity and ecotoxicological analyses in comprehensive reviews for general methods and chronicles for individual examples. Topics in structure-activity relationships include how to combine submolecular structures of pharmacological interests and modify them according to chemorational models with computer-aided procedures such as the traditional Hansch-type QSAR, the sequential, simplex optimization, and molecular modeling. Topics in the ecotoxicology
